The Masked Heart

A year ago, my life was simple. I was just Ariel Anthony…a regular college student, cheerleader with decent grades, daughter of a struggling baker, and recently appointed step-sister to a guy I barely knew. Nothing special. Then came the storm. Not just the thunderstorm that trapped me in Professor Grayson's apartment that night, but the storm that followed. The one that's still raging around me, that I created. They don't warn you about men like Luther Grayson in freshman orientation. They don't tell you how a single glance from the right person can make you question everything you thought you knew about yourself. About what you want. About what you'd risk to get it. They also don't warn you about guys like Ethan Cross, with his perfect smile hiding something dark. The kind of guy who's used to getting what he wants and doesn't understand the meaning of the word "no." And no one, absolutely no one…prepares you for what it feels like when the person who's supposed to be your brother looks at you with something else in his eyes. Mom once said I had a gift for making complicated situations worse. If she only knew. My phone buzzed beside me, and I glanced down to see Luther's name on the screen. My heart still jumps every time, even when I'm aware of what could happen if people learned about the two of us. I should ignore it. I should block his number, focus on my classes, help Mom with the bakery, and pretend none of this ever happened. But I'm already reaching for the phone. That's the thing about crossing lines… once you step over them, it's almost impossible to step back. And I've crossed so many lines now, I can't even see where I started.

I thought I left my past behind—until Max returned, unstoppable and certain I was never meant for anyone else. Famous, fierce, and possessive, he’s determined to claim me again. But I’ve moved on with Sam, who loved me when I had no one and showed me what true love really is. Max believes I belong to him, and he’ll stop at nothing to prove it. Sam won’t back down either. He’s fought for me, and he’s not letting Max tear us apart. "You were mine then. You’re mine now," Max growls. "No one can love you like I do." "Not anymore," Sam snaps. "She’s mine. You’re just a ghost from her past." Caught between two men who refuse to let me go, I must choose between the fire of my past and the peace I found with Sam. Two men. One woman. A battle for my heart—and my future. Only one can win.
